W198.......magnifique!!!

This is an absolutely stunning example of this great classic...for sale in Germany - I hardly ever use the "drooling smiley", but it is appropriate here.

Ha - yes, I do like it in silver with red interior - but this blue one has been so beautifully restored. It also has the rare and highly desirable "rudge" rims.

You're right Roberto, it is appropriate to use the drooling smiley here.

450SEL6.9 will become famous soon enough
Re: W198.......magnifique!!!

Wow! This is a proper Mercedes-Benz, not some trash with Chrysler parts! Mirbach must be the best classic car broker around. They even have a 250 GTO! Blue is a fantastic colour for the W198. I'm more familiar with it in silver as most everyone is. I love those plaid seats and Rudge wheels! Rudge wheels! The Mercedes wheel usually found on the roadster just doesn't look the same. I have a scale model of the 300SL in silver and with the plaid seats. How I'd love to get the real thing. If I buy a classic Mercedes-Benz, I'd only buy the W198 300SL Gullwing, a W116 450SEL 6.9, a W123 280 or 300D and a W100 factory armoured 600 SWB with a division.

This particular car is still available at Mirbach. Price category is above 250,000 Euros. The value for these cars peaked out in the late-80s at I believe 400,000 dollars. If anyone wants it, have the bank wire ready!
